Christian Mcbride’s New Jawn at Stanford Jazz Festival at Dinkelspiel Auditorium

About

Bassist Christian McBride is one of the most accomplished jazz artists of his generation, and the popular host of Jazz Night in America, on NPR. His collaborations with jazz legends include projects with Sonny Rollins, Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, and Pat Metheny, and his Grammy-winning bandleader credits are no less impressive. In this concert, the Stanford Jazz Festival debut of Christian’s newest ensemble, Christian delves into the piano-less tradition of great bands such as those of Gerry Mulligan and Ornette Coleman. New Jawn features two highly creative horn players and one of the most in-demand drummers of this generation.
